i don't remember the dickpic episode but i certainly bumped into some nonsense once or twice anyway, yeah, it's just becoming normal now, and clients have caches of all the relays and add any new ones you add to it, it seems, even when you log out and remove its data i mean, my relay now even lets me automatically control who can post to my relay and because of nip-65, i am actually getting people posting their events to my relay who are on my follow list
So funking bullshit! Can have node in fone! Has node in fone! Bullshit as funk! 😎
Ah, I didn't realise bluesky was run by a woman. Failure is inevitable then.

Won't relays need tonnes of compute/storage resources to process millions of users at some point?
That network is a paradise for child predators. Zero surprises it gets so much support on left-wing media. image
yeah, the problem is, just like blockchains with their terabytes of chain data (eg ethereum, steem, etc) that the entire proposition of it being decentralised REQUIRES that you don't make the cost of running a replica of the database beyond AT LEAST middle class budgets, if such a thing even exists anymore hence most shitcoin nodes are giant fucking 128 core EPYC racks that burn 10kW of power and have half a terabyte of memory and RAID5 with 32 parallel NVMe drives that cost in the order of $250k and if you actually do the analysis on the data that people want to see in their feeds... about 1% of users content needs to be delivered everywhere, and the rest can be sharded or cached on demand on much smaller nodes there hasn't been much work on actually making this work for nostr, i personally have been doing some work to make shared large data stores possible, and i have visions of in the future adding the ability to fan out the data store to networks of Blossom nodes so relays only keep the events their users are using and prune off old stuff and when old stuff or stuff not yet known is requested, the requests can cascade until the index is found and returned and cached and the relay itself becomes a node in a bigger cluster that can dynamically deliver content without any hand holding or fancy consensus logic censorship resistance doesn't matter... until you get censored and that means you are a content creator, the actual source of value of the network, even if you aren't popular i literally can't even make one post on any other social media these days because they already have profiled me and i'm pre-censored, have been for over a decade so, fine for you, mister audience member, but you wouldn't even see my work if it wasn't for nostr's censorship resistance, so, yeah, this entire conversation right now depends on this, so how's them apples?

I think artist dont care about which platform jack support. all the care is bluesky is new platform with better regulation for them than Twitter for upload contents and make money. the phrase "Jack support bluesky" just pros but not key for decision for them. I also see some artist I know talking about blue sky. bluesky allow artist do something the want than other platform
Is it possible to make a Bluesky relay that includes only selected accounts? Why would I need 5 terabytes for that? Surely hosting all posts in NOSTR would be impossible too.
Nostr is the way to go, I’m the co founder of Oviato.com a creator tool for Bitcoin ordinals. And we are banking big on Nostr to build a fair launchpad for ordinals and other Bitcoin meta protocols. Nostr FTW!
Context: I've setup a different mix of popular relays on each to try and simulate the experience of a group of users. But also each client does filtering too, so that adds another "can't be sure" layer.
Nice! Agreed, I too am placing a lot of emphasis on Nostr and believe as more people wake up to what it affords the world, we'll see its growth sky rocket.
I'm with her that this seems like an irrelevant sidetracking question but I'm curious if you can explain more Is there a reason the client in the video would be the one causing the issue, where you know what that reason is even though you don't know what client it is and she said it happens in all?
That didn't exactly address what I said. I would think what the video shows is that this client displays the problem in an easy way to show on screen, not that it's the client causing the problem. I'm curious what client it is too, but I'm a bit confused by the whole conversation above
Are you on drugs or drunk? lol... There's no collective censorship possible unless some how every single relay operator colluded together, which is certainly an improbability as it is an impossibility. Therefore, it must be your client. But you refuse to answer basic questions I ask in order to help, such as what client you're using in the video. You say "all" but I know that's far from true. I'm using quite a few different clients and I don't see mass muted notes.
